  • Question on how low should I lower my civic?

    Ok so I plan on buyinq lowerinq sprinqs for my civic. Imma throw on some 16in rims on it with tires the size of 205/45/16 the spinqs lower in front 1.9in & rear 1.7in. I dont want my tires to rub either. Is this a qood hiqht? Plus I dont want the car to look uneven.

    Just cut the springs!!! lol. jk. Sounds like a decent height. Car will look good, you wont rub tire and shouldnt scrape anything on the road. Thats about the height i lowered my car, had no issues... Lookwise, it could of been just a LITTTTTTLE bit lower, but its not worth sacraficing camber issues, rubbing, or scraping for that little extra. And i also had 16in rims

                  if u go lower dont get mudlfaps, and u can also put a 15" rim instead of 16. it was lower when i had my jmags on it...i know my cars is smooth as hell and handles great with front and rear si sway bar,n si strut bar...and if your gonna get lowering springs at all you wanna get after market struts designed for lowered cars, like kyb agx or tokiko blue. i got mine in a package used. but you get what you pay for with suspension and you dont wanna do it cheap
